Wait till you see this walking and talking Olaf animatronic. You might just think he’s real!
Meet Olaf! Well, you probably already know him as the super-friendly walking and talking snowman. Now, he’s talking to the streets of Hong Kong and Paris to meet guests.

This new animatronic was released on We Call It Imagineering, a YouTube series that gives us a behind-the-scenes look at new projects Disney is working on. They said Olaf will be coming to World of Frozen at Hong Kong Disneyland and Disneyland Paris.

He looks incredible! He walks, blinks, and looks around, and has many elements that make him look pretty life-like (well, as life-like for a talking snowman). My absolute favorite feature is how his arm comes off, just like in the movie!

This might be one of the coolest animatronics we’ve seen. It’s not the first walking and talking animatronic since we’ve seen a prototype of a Judy Hopps one, but this is wildly impressive. We haven’t seen Judy Hopps hit the parks yet, but she was able to roller skate!
Disney’s new self-actualized robot friends
You can check out a full video of Olaf here! Yes, he sounds exactly like Josh Gad. They worked with some of the animators from the Frozen movies.
@disneyparks From screen to reality, the next-generation robotic character representing Olaf marks a new chapter in Disney character innovation ☃️
